Monkeys, could really use your help. I’ve accepted a job in NYC but only have to go to the office ~2x a month. I would still like to live close to the city (max. within 30min but prefer 15-20). With the current rent prices it makes little sense to live in Manhattan, and I am not very familiar with NYC, so any help is appreciated!
